117. Sorry, but they hate. You are right in the rest of your post, though.

They don't wait in long lines to make a statement. They wait in long lines because they are seething and angry, and that is what the Karl Roves of the world have depended upon for decades. You are right that marriage equality will ultimately win out - but it's going to be a rocky and violent ride.

Thanks for a thoughtful post, though. However, denying hatred has gotten many killed throughout human history. "It can't be that bad" is an invitation to disaster.
